<![CDATA[My MM set up now need help with Wifi]]>Firstly this forum has been a great help and so much learning from the topics. but now I am looking for help in enabling wifi on my RPI 3 B+. I tried for 2 days and decided to hook up with RJ45 cable to at least get the MM working. I have managed to set up everything but now I don’t have a choice but to set up wifi. Any help will be appreciated.

Am very pleased with what I have achieved by going through the topics. Thank you to all

I tried multiple images and must have read various posts to figure out. spent a week trying to get the wifi working but had to give up and used a network cable. Now that I have set up the MM I am trying again to set up wifi. you are right so many old posts (some without dates) so am trying everything right now just to get it working. Any post you can direct me to have a look?

I did add that file when I created the original image. I also tried again after getting MM working. Also checked the file by

sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

any my wifi set up is there.

Try this, maybe it helps:
shutdown your pi, take the sd-card out, put it in a card-reader and plug it in a windows-PC. Copy an empty file called ssh (with no extension, take care your PC shows all extensions) and also a file named wpa_supplicant.conf into the root-directory of the SD-card
The file wpa_supplicant.conf needs the following content, of course with your credentials:

country=EN
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid=“thenameofyournetwork”
psk=“yourpassword”
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

Put it back into your RPI and boot.

Thomas

Didn’t help as when I try this, the result is this.

pi@raspberry:/ $ sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
wlan0 Interface doesn’t support scanning.
pi@raspberry:/ $
